Warming Hearth 2[edit]

Minor colour changes. Some of my thoughts and how strongly I feel about the colour:

  • Elementalist: a dark orange almost red, to make it more distinct from revenant. I think it looks fine as it is, but I'm open to a redder hue if it doesn't look too similar to thief or revenant.
  • Mesmer: average purple. Not a fan of the pinkish hue. I think it's perfectly fine as it is now.
  • Necromancer: I like Alex#2, aka the current colour, but I tried making it somewhat brighter. I think either looks fine.
  • Engineer: almost always light brown, so I went with darkish ochre. I think it's fine. I dislike the orange/amber options.
  • Ranger: green-yellow lime-ish colour looks more nature-like and more distinct from necromancer. I love it.
  • Thief: this one is quite hard. I initially tried grey but it looks boring, so I added some shades of red. Perhaps too similar to revenant. I have no strong feelings about it, fully open to suggestions.
  • Guardian: I think cyan fits better than light blue. I really like it.
  • Revenant: again, quite hard. I went for dark red. I have no strong feelings about it, fully open to suggestions.
  • Warrior: leaned more in the yellow side. A bit more orange wouldn't look out of place, but it might be too similar to engineer. Or perhaps slightly darker hue.I like it.
